Ingredients
5 fresh peaches, peeled, cored, and sliced (about 4 cups / 600–700 g)
3/4 cup granulated sugar (150 g)
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons melted butter (85 g)
1 cup all-purpose flour (120 g)
1 cup granulated sugar (200 g)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup whole milk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)
In a large bowl, toss peaches, 3/4 cup sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; transfer to a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Pour melted butter over the peaches and let absorb slightly.
In another bowl, combine flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt (if using salted butter for a crispy crust). Mix dry ingredients.
Make a well in the dry mixture, add beaten egg and milk. Stir until just combined.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the peaches in the dish.
Bake for 45-50 minutes until golden and bubbly.
Let rest slightly before serving warm.
Notes
Use ripe peaches for maximum sweetness and juiciness.
If peaches are under-ripe, reduce added sugar to 1/2 cup.
Canned peaches work in a pinch; drain well.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat.
For a sweeter filling, add 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon to the peaches.
